Derek Redfern (ID: 00000092e5e444be) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 12/20/2017 Currently taking up several gigabytes of memory on my system; suspect it has a memory leak somewhere since this only shows up when Chrome is open for a long time. Very simple and useful, will reinstall if the developer resolves the memory issues.
